The Black Sea Coast region
The Black Sea coast boasts golden stretches of sandy beaches, rocky coves and idylic serene waters, and is fast emerging as a major tourist destination like Balchick, Kavarna and Albena. Village life in contrast is very traditional where the locals still work their land manually and their handicrafts are still passed from generation to generation. Villa Lorna is situated in one such village. Polkovnik Sveshtarovo with a population of just 160 is a peaceful village nestled in the Bulgarian countryside and yet only a few minutes drive to the city of Dobrich and just 20 minutes to the beach resorts and the 3 new golf courses. The village has a mini-market situated just 100 metres from Villa Lorna and a number of supermarkets can also be found in nearby Dobrich.
THE CLIMATE:- Winter 4c to 8c -- Spring 15c to 20c -- Summer 25c to 30c -- Autumn 20c to 25c
